2008 Chevy Aveo 4 cyl, same issue without the overheating. IT's like it don't want to go over 40mph, and that's going downhill. It barely wants to take off, and as I'm at an idle it shakes and the RPM stick bounces between 1-2 and then below 1 sometimes. Just replaced the front O2 sensor and that was NOT the issue apparently.
